Re: Player

"Ah! Then we would like to see only the normal [Arrays]. I doubt we even have enough to buy a normal one, forget about a greater one," Raven spoke as she realized that disturbing such high level NPCs over something trivial might not be a good idea.

"Good thinking there. We don't know how the NPCs behave so let's watch and learn for now," Black Scythe was on the same wavelength as Raven.

This game was boasted to be close to reality along with realistic NPCs living here. So there was a high chance that disturbing someone strong over something small just for fun might land them in trouble they can't handle.

"All right. Wait a second." Leena then took out a bunch of arrays from the shelves and presented them in front of the players.

[Array of Strength (One-Time Use item)!

[Increases the user's strength by 50 for 5 minutes!

Cost: 10 Silvers!

Note: Only one item of this type can be used at a time!]

-Hiss!!!

The duo, Raven and Black Scythe, was shocked to see both the effects and the cost of that array. Leena asked them if they wanted to see more, but both of them shook their heads.

"It's all right. We only have a few copper coins. I doubt we can afford that. Can you just show us the previous ones? Sorry for the trouble," Raven was extra careful with Leena, while Anna observed the entire thing with slight curiosity.

"Sure," Leena smiled as she then showed them the previous batch of arrays, while they both took their time deciding what to buy and what not to.

"What are your plans? Maybe I can help you out with choosing," Leena spoke as she saw them struggling to make a choice.

Though both of them turned to her with a slightly shocked expression. And they both turned towards each other, thinking exactly the same thing.

"A quest!" x2

"??" Leena

"Yes! We would be really thankful if you help us out!" Black Scythe spoke as he looked forward to the quest, and Leena, though feeling odd with their behavior, still asked,

"So. What are your next plans?"

"We were going to earn some money by hunting monsters outside the city," Raven chimed in, making Leena nod before she asked again,

"Is earning money your primary focus or gaining experience? Or somewhere in between?"

This question made the duo think for a while before Raven added," for now it's money. When we have enough, we can use more arrays to gain experience faster."

Leena nodded before asking the next question.

"How much money do you have right now?"

"20 Copper," Black Scythe answered.

"34 Copper," Raven answered.

Then Leena pondered before assessing the strength of the duo in front of her, and then taking out a bunch of arrays and then placing them on the table.

[Lesser Array of Strength (One-time use)!]

[Lesser Array of Constriction (One-time use)!]

[Allows the user to bind a target of Level 5 and below for 30 seconds!

Cost: 15 Copper!

Note: Only one item of this type can be used at a time!]

[Lesser Array of Precision (One-time use)!]

[Allows the user to increase critical chance by 10% for 5 minutes!

Cost: 10 Copper!

Note: Only one item of this type can be used at a time!]

"These three will cost 25 copper with a 30% discount. Use the rest of the money to buy a sharp weapon. I would suggest going with the [Goblin's Dagger!]. You can get it for 20 copper, and it is better than a normal dagger," Leena began giving them a short run through of how to hunt.

The player duo listened to her with their ears perked up, not missing a single word, as if they were listening to a holy scripture or something.

"Since you want to earn money. I'll tell you three ways of doing it in this town.

First is to hunt monsters. The most wanted monster within your limit is the white slime that you can find in the forest outside the city. If you walk down east of the city walls from the outside, you will come across them.

Since they are nimble, use the arrays there.

Just take their cores and sell them to the merchants for some money.

The next is by helping people in the city. They are always in need of something, so you can help them in return for some pocket change. Not recommended, but surely helpful.

Finally, is through adventurer requests you can find in the adventurer's hall. But you need to pass the test for that."

They both nodded excitedly as they looked at Leena with a dazed look.

"Ummm… Miss Leena. About those requests… Do you… have any requests?" Black Scythe, who more or less knew about the pattern of the quests, tried to shoot his shot here.

Perhaps he would get a [Unique Quest] or something? Who knows…

"Me?" Leena was surprised to hear that, but then she pondered for a while, wondering if she needed anything. Honestly, since Adam had done so much already, they don't lack anything for the next few years.

Even so, these poor people wanted to make themselves useful, so she wondered if there was anything they could be helpful for.

-Click!

-Ring! Ring!

The door opened ringing the bell, as a man entered the shop, gaining the attention of all the four people present here.

"Master. I thought you would never come," Leena spoke as she looked at Wesker with a smile, while the duo was shocked to see that man. Or, to be precise, the top of his head.

[??? Lvl. ???!]

Question marks only meant one thing in the game. That your level is too low to know about the person in the game. Though if even the name is hidden… then how powerful is this person in front of them?

"Been checking out a few things. How are things in the shop?" That guy asked as he moved in, patted Anna's head, who smiled before continuing to arrange the books.

"These people asked me if they could help us out in any way," Leena spoke, making the duo shriek a little. They gulped as they stood between the three high leveled NPCs, before Adam spoke.

"Help, huh?"

And then he turned to the duo in front of him and they both nodded immediately.

"WE CAN DO ANYTHING!!"

"JUST ASK US!"

Adam smiled at the behavior of the duo in front of him before looking at their names. And then speaking,

"Let's see. I need nothing for the shop. Will it be all right if I ask you guys to promote the arrays? If you can do that, I can give you an additional 10% off on the arrays. And a few more rewards if you exceed my expectations."

The quest was issued to the duo at once. And both were quite ecstatic to see it. Enough to make them drool, before they wiped it and then looked at Adam, giving them a bunch of arrays.
